We celebrated the 50th anniversary of the North West London cross country league at Horsenden Hill on Saturday, the final 4.7km race including adults who had run in the league during their younger days.

Long-time ESM member Dennis Wraight (pictured in blue) won two gold medals for Slovenia in the M75 category at the Balkan Veteran Games in Thessaloniki last weekend. He ran the 5000m on Friday 18th September, in a sprightly 25:26.9 minutes, which puts him top of the UK rankings this year. […]
It was a slightly thin ESM turnout for the South of England Road Relay Championships at Rushmoor Arena in Aldershot last weekend, especially as it’s a useful transitional event for track athletes moving into the cross country season. Nonetheless we sent female teams in the Senior, Under 17 and Under […]

We ended the season in the middle of our division, following the fifth and final SAL match on Saturday. We finished second on the day, a long way behind Radley AC but comfortably clear of both Winchester AC and Epsom & Ewell Harriers. As host club, we had the benefit […]
Conditions were chilly and breezy and our U20/U17 squad were faced with almost unrelenting rain at the final match of the Youth Development League at Perivale last Saturday. PBs were few and far between, and home advantage was of little avail. The turnout was a little sparse, but they won […]
